Hi everyone,
I am new to this site and I joined to talk with people who are maybe feeling some of the things I am. I am caring for my grandma who has battled breast and lung cancer in the short space of 3ish years. Some days are great, other days she just wants to sleep and trying to get her to eat is getting harder and harder and I'm feeling a bit low. I don't want to fail her so I thought there might be someone out there who could give me a few pointers?
Thank you for any help given
Hi and welcome to the online community
I'm sorry to hear that your grandma has both breast and lung cancer and I can understand why you want to do the best for her.
As a carer you might like to join the carers only group which is a safe and supportive place to share your worries and emotions with other carers.
